A weekly ride to the Johannesburg Kidney Centre for Lucky

A rota of drivers to the Johannesburg Kidney Centre would keep Lucky on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Lucky has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to the Johannesburg Kidney Centre alone. After a minor stroke, Lucky can no longer drive. Taxis cost more than the family can pay three times a week. We're building a rota of volunteer drivers. Each session is 4 hours, including the trip there and back; most volunteers take one regular day. The journey is about 24 km each way. Lucky is cheerful company. You'd need a car in good condition and a clean driving record. We'll cover your fuel costs, and the family will send you home with homemade food. Please say which day works for you in the comments. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

  • Sending love, Mpho. Shared it with a few friends. It's not much but it's yours.

    • it takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Johannesburg.

      • Hope things get better soon, Mpho. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best!
